Medical Center Barbour Reports Data Breach

August 22, 2024
Reading Time: 2 mins read
in Incidents

Medical Center Barbour in Eufaula, Alabama, reported a significant data breach affecting 61,014 individuals to the Maine Attorney General. The breach was first detected on October 29, 2023, when suspicious activity was identified within the medical center’s network. An investigation was promptly launched, involving cybersecurity specialists who confirmed on December 8, 2023, that unauthorized access had occurred, and that files and data stored on the network may have been exfiltrated.

Although the investigation concluded swiftly, it took several months for the internal review to determine the types of data compromised. This review was completed on May 21, 2024, and a third-party data mining company was brought in to assist with analyzing the impacted data. The final notifications were sent to affected individuals on August 22, 2024, after the data review process was completed on July 31, 2024. The types of data compromised in the breach included names, dates of birth, and taxpayer identification numbers.

In response to the breach, Medical Center Barbour has offered affected individuals complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services for 12 months. These measures aim to help mitigate potential damage caused by the breach. The medical center is committed to assisting those impacted and ensuring they are protected against identity theft and fraud.

Furthermore, Medical Center Barbour has taken steps to enhance its cybersecurity practices following the incident. New monitoring tools have been deployed to strengthen the security of its systems, and the center continues to evaluate and improve its protective measures to prevent similar breaches in the future. The medical center remains dedicated to safeguarding patient and employee information and is working to rebuild trust with the affected individuals.
